After more than 20 years of ups and downs in the sea before rebirth, Li Yanqing's psychology towards officials has made me very deep. Pen ~ fun ~ pavilion www.biquge.info

He hadn't dealt with Yang Qing, but through three years of observation, he knew something about this person. Yang Qing belongs to the typical type of 'invincible if people are cheap'. are all invincible, and it is obviously impossible to use ordinary methods to make him bow his head. And this kind of person seems to be indifferent to everything on the surface, but deep down, he is extremely fragile and cares for his face more than anyone else.

If Pei Xingyan quarrels with Yang Qing, the result he gets will definitely be that Yang Qing will turn his face.

After all, Yang Qing is the supreme commander of Xingyang, and at the same time has the right to control the military government. As for Pei Xingyan, if he just lost Jindi Pass and angered Yang Qing, that guy may not care about Pei Xingyan's background in Hedong Pei. Because Yang Qing himself is also from the clan...... Li Yanqing had to suppress Pei Xingyan first, and then he could go to see Yang Qing.

On the way to the county guard's mansion, Yan Qing had countless plans in his mind, but none of them could be passed in the end.

That guy is as timid as a mouse, and it is not easy for him to send troops to capture Jindi Pass.

Before they knew it, the two of them had arrived at the gate of the county guard's mansion.

At this time, Yang Qing was also ready to turn his face with Pei Xingyan.

With a gloomy face, he watched Li Yanqing and Pei Xingyan walk into the hall, and snorted coldly.

He and Li Yanqing didn't have much intersection, that is, at the beginning of his tenure, when Li Yanqing was named a Gong County man, the two said a few words.

Later, Yanqing kept filial piety behind closed doors and rarely interacted with the outside world.

When he was appointed as the general of the Eagle Yang Lang of the Black Stone Mansion, Yang Qing refused to leave the county easily because of the bandits under his rule, so he only sent Wei Wentong and a few people to report. Overall, Yang Qing did not have much bad feelings towards Li Yanqing, on the contrary, he had a good impression.

First, Yanqing is known as the Qingliu Grandmaster and has a great reputation; Second, he stayed in Gong County, and he didn't cause trouble, so naturally he wouldn't anger Yang Qing. However, Yang Qing still decided to give Li Yanqing a dismissal and let him know that in this Xingyang County, he Yang Qing is the boss.

But to Yang Qing's surprise, after Li Yanqing and Pei Xingyan met, they did not propose to recapture Jindi Pass.

"Metropolitan Governor, Lao Pei fell for the strategy of the thief Li Mi, so that he lost the Jindi Pass.

Although he deserves death, he still asks the Metropolitan Governor to spare him once for the sake of his dedication and protection of Xingyang's safety in the past three years.

Lao Pei, don't hurry up and ask the Metropolitan Governor for guilt! ”

Pei Xingyan pursed his face, a little reluctant.

But Yan Qing's eyes widened, and he suddenly felt a little furious in his heart, so he took two steps forward, knelt down on one knee and said: "The last general will lose the Jindi Pass, and please ask the capital to punish the crime." ”

Yang Qing, smiled!

Hey, this Pei Laohu finally knows the stakes......

Since Pei Xingyan had already bowed his head, Yang Qing was not very upset.

As Li Yanqing guessed, people like Yang Qing are as weak as a ball of cotton in their hearts. If you have a hard fight with him, this guy will definitely turn his face ruthlessly, and even put on a businesslike face and put people to death; But if you bow your head to him a little, he will be very satisfied. To be honest, Yang Qing was not comfortable sitting in the position of the county guard of Xingyang County and the governor of Dadu.

He was not born to be a tough person, and what happened to his father Yang Hong made him even more cautious.

To be a free prince, he is absolutely qualified; But when it comes to governing the locality, it is really beyond his ability to make the rule peaceful.

Yang Guang trusted him, so he appointed him to Xingyang.

But the problem is that he doesn't have the ability, and putting him in the position of the county guard is tantamount to roasting him on a fire. Externally, the Wagang army is powerful; Internally, the generals of the six major armies are either famous or noble-born, and Yang Qing is not able to restrain them.

Among the six major generals, Li Yanqing was born the lowest, had the most military achievements, and had the most fame.

Although Pei Xingyan's military exploits are not prominent, he is a son of the world. Even Yang Guang has a headache for the Shixuan Gate Valve, let alone Yang Qing?

As for Xin Wenli and Wei Wentong, they are both veterans in the army, not only with qualifications, but also with military exploits. Zheng Weishan is backed by the Zheng family in Xingyang, and if Yang Qing wants to govern Xingyang, he also needs the support of these family members. Zhang Jixun...... His father has the merit of being a dragon, and Yang Qing also can't afford to provoke him.

Now, Pei Xingyan lowered his posture and lowered his head......

This made Yang Qing's heart extremely satisfied.

So he stood up, hurriedly stepped forward to help Pei Xingyan, and said with a pleasant face: "Pei Lang will not be like this." Li Thief is cunning, and the Jindi Pass is lost, which is not the fault of the general. ”

If you give me face, then I won't embarrass you!

Pei Xing was relieved, and after thanking Yang Qing, he stepped aside.

From now on, he is a transparent person. Next is the trick between Li Yanqing and Yang Qing, and Pei Xingyan basically can't interject.

"Li Xiannan, are you guilty?"

Yan Qing hurriedly made a sincere and frightened appearance, "The last general sent troops without authorization, violated the order of the Dadu Governor, the real crime is unforgivable, please punish the Dadu Governor." ”

Yang Qing knew that Li Yanqing was pretending, but in his heart, it was very beautiful.

Sometimes, he feels that Li Yanqing is not a fledgling young man, but an old fritter who has been immersed in silver in the sea for many years. Take his current sincere and fearful performance as an example, how can he be so realistic without a little grinding? Yang Qing couldn't help but laugh.

This is not what the governor is talking about.

In order to rescue Paoze, General Li violated the military order, but it was also reasonable. Besides, General Li rescued General Pei, which is a great achievement, what is the crime? ”

"Please also ask the Metropolitan Governor to guide me through the maze."

"You guy...... Hehe, this governor has been out of the town of Xingyang for three years, except for one time when he canonized you as a county man, you never came to the door. The Governor is also very busy, but you should also come and go often. Every time I go back to Luoyang to report on work, someone will always ask me, does Li Xiannan have any good works recently? But I don't know what to ask...... Hehe, I haven't had a pair of ink treasures in my house so far, you say, is it guilty? ”

"Ah...... This is Li's fault, and please punish him. ”

"Then I'll punish you and punish you for writing a volume of the Huang Ting Jing for me, how about it?"

Li Yanqing hurriedly said: "This end will be a matter of internal affairs. ”

The two of them looked sympathetic to each other in the hall, but Pei Xingyan on the side felt chills when he saw it.

Damn, now that the ant thieves are coming to the city, it's good for you two to not talk about business, but to say something that is not nutritious, which is too much.

He finally couldn't help it, stepped forward and said: "Dadu Governor, now that Jindi Pass is lost, I don't know what countermeasures Dadu Governor has?" ”

Without waiting for Yang Qing to speak, Li Yanqing's face changed first.

"Lao Pei, Hugh is talking nonsense, the ant thieves are just a rabble, and the governor has already made a plan, how can you let you scream."

"But ......"

"Pei Laohu, if you talk nonsense again, I will tell my aunt when I turn around and ask her to judge."

Pei Xingyan's cheeks twitched, and he said in his heart: Li Yanqing, you are ruthless!

Reluctantly, he stepped aside, and said no more.

Yang Qing was so happy in his heart. Sure enough, he is a reckless man, after all, he can't compare to the goose boy who knows people coldly and warmly. 's good impression of Li Yanqing skyrocketed in an instant.

"General Pei, you must be tired from killing all night...... Let's go down and rest first, and I'll talk to General Li about something. ”

The implication is to tell Pei Xingyan: I have a countermeasure, but I just won't let you know.

Although Pei Xingyan was unhappy, the official level crushed people to death, not to mention that this was the county guard's mansion, how could he go against the wishes of the master's family?

"Tiger, you go down first, I'll find out the news."

Li Yanqing whispered in his ear. Pei Xingyan nodded helplessly and exited the hall.

Yang Qing had a polite conversation with Yan Qing again, and then the guests and hosts sat down. However, this time, Yang Qing took the initiative to lead the topic to Jindiguan.

He has been in Xingyang for three years, so he naturally understands Yanqing's prestige in the local area.

Only three years to open a porridge shed, so that Li Yanqing made a lot of money. Of course, what he earns is not money, but popular hearts and prestige.

Moreover, Li Yanqing has outstanding talents and outstanding achievements.

The name of Li Invincible was not obtained out of thin air, it was real, and he stepped on countless corpses to get it. From the bottom of his heart, Yang Qing has a good impression of Li Yanqing. In addition, Li Yanqing gave him enough face today, so Yang Qing also wanted to hear Li Yanqing's idea.

"Li Thief wrote me a letter."

Yang Qing motioned to his staff to bring Li Mi's letter.

Taking advantage of this, only he and Yan Qing were left in the hall, Yang Qing sighed with emotion, and said softly: "Li Xiannan, in terms of age, I am twenty years older than you, so I will call you a good nephew." Speaking from the heart, after coming to Xingyang for three years, the governor is not trembling and cautious. I know what people outside say about me, and I also know that General Pei calls me Yang Mouse in private...... Don't argue, I don't blame him.

Today, I just want to talk to you from the heart. His Majesty made three expeditions to Liaodong, but it was 'I dreamed of Jiangnan well, and the expedition to Liaodong was also accidental'. At this time, the situation is changing so fast, I really can't see it clearly. At the beginning of my tenure, I knew that this Xingyang was a hot potato. But as a subordinate and a clan, he should share his majesty's worries. I knew I might not be able to, but I had no choice but to bite the bullet and come to work.

Don't I want to exterminate those ant thieves? But the ant-thief's whereabouts were uncertain, and I gathered my troops and horses, and they withdrew; As soon as I disbanded, they came again...... Just wiped out one, another one popped up. As far as I know, in the past three years, General Xu Shiji of the former Luokou Mansion alone has eliminated more than 20 ant thieves, but what can it do? The result is not the same, there are bandits everywhere, and the ant thieves are arrogant.

After a long time, I was thinking: forget it, and try to do it.

Although the ant thieves are rampant, I have a high city and thick walls to block, and they can't help the eleven county towns under their rule. If they rob, let them rob, and how much can they rob? After the robbery, they naturally left...... But if I provoke them, it will be my bad luck to rule the people. ”

At this time, the staff took Li Mi's letter.

Yang Qing handed it to Li Yanqing and said with a wry smile: "Wagang is now terrifying, and 100,000 and 200,000 ant thieves are dispatched at every turn. If you really want to fight, I am afraid that it will be ruined, and under the rule of Xingyang, there will be no one in ten. What can they do if they occupy Jindi Pass? In the end, it is still necessary to let it out. Rather than repeating such tricks, it is better to let them do it. As long as they don't touch my eleven county seats. ”

Between the words, there was a deep sense of fatigue.

Li Yanqing didn't know what to say about him.

Perhaps, a good person just sat in a seat that he shouldn't have sitting.

He carefully read Li Mi's letter and fell into deep thought.

"The Governor's concern is not unreasonable." Yan Qing could only follow Yang Qing's meaning, and said thoughtfully: "But let the ant thieves run rampant like this, and do nothing, I'm afraid it's not a thing." Wagang now occupies the Jindi Pass, claiming to plunder everywhere. If the Metropolitan Governor does not take some action, if the imperial court knows about it in the future, it will also punish the Metropolitan Governor. Moreover, the ant thieves have occupied the Jindi Pass, so to speak, but the Metropolitan Governor knows when they will be satisfied? As far as I know, the 300,000 ant thieves in Wagang need to weigh a lot of baggage, how amazing? As soon as they say they can't be satisfied, they won't leave. If you stay in Xingyang longer, there will be more danger in Xingyang.

The Metropolitan Governor loves the people like a son, but the ignorant people will think that the Metropolitan Governor is afraid of the ant thief. When the time comes, under the rule of Xingyang, it will be even more chaotic. ”

Yang Qingyi frowned, "Then what do you say?" ”

"Sending troops must not be ...... Even if there are six major military governments in Xingyang, there are only 10,000 soldiers.

It's more than enough to defend the city, but want to defeat the ant thieves? No way. Unless, the imperial court can send people and horses to support, but now the bandits everywhere are unaware, and even around the eastern capital, there are bandits who are ready to move. The Holy Lord patrolled the south of the Yangtze River and took almost all the Xiaoguo away, and the Heluo area was also empty. Virtuous nephew, if I don't want to, I really can't...... Xingyang can't be beaten, and if it is a dozen, it will definitely be a big mess. ”

Yan Qing couldn't help but be a little speechless.

He really couldn't understand how Yang Qing thought about it.

Say he doesn't understand? But he knew everything; said that he understood, but the decision he made was overwhelming.

However, there is one point, Li Yanqing can be regarded as understanding: if you want Yang Qing to send troops, it is absolutely impossible!

I secretly smiled bitterly in my heart, but there was a look of approval on my face.

After pondering for a moment, he spoke: "Dadu Governor, if you can not send troops, and cause the ant thieves to be in chaos and retreat without a fight, what does Dadu think of it?" ”

"Oh?"

Yang Qing's eyes lit up, "Virtuous nephew, will the plan be released?" ”

Li Yanqing took a deep breath, "I don't know if this plan can succeed." But if it can be calculated, the ant thieves may have infighting, and when the time comes, they will naturally give up the Golden Causeway. However, in order to achieve this plan, it is necessary to cooperate with the metropolitan governor and give some necessary support. ”

"But I don't know, what kind of support?"

Li Yanqing got up, came to Yang Qing's side, and whispered in his ear.

Yang Qing frowned at first, and seemed a little reluctant. But listening to it, he couldn't help but nod slightly, and there was a little smile on his face.

"This plan is wonderful!"

He bowed his head and muttered for a moment, "In that case, let's start preparing now...... If the ant thief retreats, the virtuous nephew should be the first to take credit. ”

The first merit?

Li Yanqing smiled helplessly: I would rather not ...... this kind of merit If you weren't as timid as a mouse, Li Miyan would be as rampant!

****

The capture of Jindi Pass, no matter what means are used, is a great encouragement for the Wagang army.

Although Pei Xingyan was not killed, it was only for the generals of the Wagang Army. For ordinary soldiers, it is undoubtedly a great victory to be able to capture Guancheng. Although the end result is a little unsatisfactory, what is it? Jindi Pass has been captured by us.

Not only ordinary soldiers, but also many generals of the Wagang Army, consciously or unintentionally ignored the last defeat.

That night, the Wagang army was on the Jindi Pass and indulged in carnival.

However, Li Mi did not dare to be careless, but took people to closely monitor every move of the Tiger Prison.

Don't look at the swear on his mouth, saying that this is incompetent, that is gutsless. In his heart, Li Mi was also really worried. If the Sui army launched a counterattack, with the courage of the six great generals, plus that mysterious and mysterious Li Yanqing, who is also said to be proficient in demon law, he can only be more careful. After all, Li Mi was really not sure about Li Yanqing, or rather, he didn't know much.

This can't be blamed for Li Mi underestimating Li Yanqing, it's really ......

At the time of Yang Xuangan's rebellion, Li Yanqing was only sixteen years old. Even if he had a great reputation, Li Mi could not take him too seriously.

By the time he wanted to pay attention to Yanqing, Yang Xuangan had already been defeated!

Li Midong has been in hiding for more than two years, and Li Yanqing has no contact with anyone behind closed doors, as if he is about to be forgotten. If it weren't for the Kirin Pavilion that attracted people's attention just right, maybe three years later, Li Yanqing would really be forgotten.

Yang Qing, don't dare to fight back!

And what about Li Yanqing?

How could Li Mi not be worried?

is as worried as Li Mi, and Cheng Zhijie.

The two took turns on duty until the sky was about to dawn, and they were not relieved.

"Tie Niu, I'll go back and rest first, and if there's anything, notify me immediately."

Li Mi stayed up all night, and he really couldn't hold it anymore. So he explained to Cheng Yanjin, and returned to the military tent to rest.

However, as soon as Li Mi left on the front foot, Zhai Rang sent someone to replace Cheng Biting Jin on the back foot.

first had a vicious battle, and then there was no rest all night, and Cheng Yanjin was really a little unbearable. So he gave an account to the one who had replaced him, and went down to rest. But he forgot that the person who came to replace him on duty was sent by Zhai Rang, so how could he care about Li Mi's explanation?

At noon, on the official road in the direction of Tiger Prison Pass, a group of people came.

The leader was a young man dressed as a scribe, who dismounted early outside the Jindi Guanjuan Cave, and arched his hand: "The secretary of the Xingyang Metropolitan Governor is Xu Jingzong, and in the name of the Metropolitan Governor, he has come to visit the general. Please also ask the general to make a statement, and the governor has important matters to discuss with the general. ”

The person on duty is just a small colonel in Wagangzhai, so he deserves the title of general?

Xu Jingzong was respectful, and immediately made the uncle happy. However, on his face, he still showed arrogance, raised his chin, and said coldly: "Wait here, I'll go to the general...... However, there is no guarantee that the general will be able to see you. ”

"Please keep the general aware."

As Xu Jingzong spoke, he stepped forward and stuffed a golden cake into the little school's hand while no one was paying attention.

This is real gold!

Xiao Xiaoxiao's face suddenly felt a little warmer.

"Wait here, don't wander around."

After speaking, he rushed to the big tent of the Chinese army.

And Xu Jingzong honestly stayed outside the rolling cave, looking very restrained, so that the other Wagang troops on duty also relaxed their vigilance against him.

After a while, the colonel returned.

"The general is not in a bad mood today, you come with me...... However, after meeting the general, you should be more careful not to say the wrong thing. ”

"That's, that's, thank you for the point."

While the two were walking, Xu Jingzong stuffed a gold cake for the little school, which made the little school happy, and his eyes narrowed into a line.

came to the big tent of the Chinese army, Zhai Rang and his brother Zhai Hong, as well as Shan Xiongxin and other close confidants, sat in it.

Xu Jingzong hurriedly stepped forward to salute and said respectfully: "Xiaosheng was ordered by the governor of the capital, and he has an important letter to submit to the general. ”

As he spoke, he took out a letter from his bosom and presented it with both hands.

"Before Xiao Sheng, the Metropolitan Governor had instructed that although the General occupied the Jindi Pass, the Metropolitan Governor had no intention of blaming. Moreover, the great governor was also very grateful for the general's kindness. It's just that the generals of the six major armies are now gathered in the Tiger Prison Pass, vowing to recapture the Golden Causeway and fight to the death with the general.

The governor said that the six major military generals all have backgrounds.

Especially Pei Laohu Pei Xingyan, whose father is the general of the Right Prison Gate, is in charge of the Eastern Capital Garrison. There are more than 40 soldiers and horses in Heluo, all of which are controlled by his father. Pei Laohu said that he would ask his father to send troops to seize Jindi Pass and step on Wagangzhai...... But the Governor had stopped him. ”

This sentence, Zhai Rang and the others who said it, suddenly changed color.

The combat effectiveness of the government soldiers, they have been taught. and those earlier Xiangyong, they do not belong to the same level at all.

Don't look at the countless soldiers and horses in Wagangzhai, but ...... If the other party is determined to fight a decisive battle with him, more than 40 soldiers and horses are equal to nearly 50,000 regular troops. Can Wagangzhai withstand the onslaught of 50,000 regular troops? Zhai Rang is in his heart, but he really has no bottom.

Xu Jingzong said: "The Metropolitan Governor means that if the general wants to establish authority, the goal has been achieved.

If in order to seek wealth, the governor of the capital can offer 5,000 stones of grain and grass, and a certain amount of baggage, so as to boost the prestige of the general. However, the general still needs to give up the Jindi Pass as soon as possible, otherwise the metropolitan governor will no longer be able to suppress the six major generals. Although the six military governments are under the control of the Metropolitan Governor, if they receive the order of the Twelve Guards, even the Metropolitan Governor will not be able to stop them at that time...... The Metropolitan Governor said: It is convenient for others and for oneself. ”

Zhai Rang and a few people couldn't help but nod their heads again and again.

But just retreating so easily, Zhai Rang was reluctant.

When he took the letter, he did not read it immediately, but placed it on the desk in front of him, his elbow pressed against the letter, and his eyes narrowed into slits.

"It's not impossible to give up the Jindi Pass.

It's just that in order to capture this Jindi Pass, I have spent a lot of effort in Wagang, and I have lost countless money and food. With only 5,000 stone of grain, let us retreat...... Hehe, didn't the Metropolitan Governor think that he would be called Hanako? Xingyang is the barrier of the eastern capital, and the Heluo is a heavy land. It also set up Luokou warehouse, 5,000 stone grain and grass...... The sincerity of the Grand Governor is too little, and I am afraid that it will be difficult for me to obey my fate. Go back and tell your family governor, 50,000 stone grain and grass, plus 100,000 yuan, I will immediately withdraw from the army, and I will never regret it. If the Governor refuses to agree, then the general will be blamed......"

Xu Jingzong suddenly showed embarrassment.

"This ...... Xiaosheng still needs to go back and discuss with the Metropolitan Governor. ”

Zhai Rang said: "Since this is the case, then you go back and discuss with the Governor of Dadu, 50,000 stone grain and grass, 100,000 yuan, you can't miss it!" ”

The voice is fierce, and the words are intimidating.

Xu Jingzong was so frightened that he couldn't even speak, nodded again and again, turned around and was about to leave.

Zhai Rang sneered, and then picked up the letter.

However, he only glanced at it, and his black face suddenly turned red.

"Wait!"

Shan Xiongxin stepped forward, grabbed the collar of Xu Jingzong's clothes, and dragged Xu Jingzong back.

Xu Jingzong was so frightened that he couldn't stand up straight on his legs, and he couldn't stop trembling. If it weren't for Shan Xiongxin holding him, I was afraid that it would be impossible to even stand...... "Big, big, the general has, yes, what are your orders?" ”

Zhai Rang stood up, bypassed the bookcase, and came to Xu Jingzong, his eyes narrowed into a slit, and his face was full of anger.

"Who is this letter for?"

A faint killing intent surged, making Xu Jingzong's face pale.

"Of course, with the general, of course."

"Then let me ask you, who is the general in your mouth?"

Xu Jingzong finally stabilized his mind, but his voice was still a little trembling, "The Governor of Dadu said that the general is the Duke of Pushan...... Is there something wrong? ”

(To be continued)
